Cooking and riding a bike

 Little Miss was soooo excited to make breakfast for her siblings Saturday morning.  She made menus the night before, literally handwritten menus and made sure Ryan set an alarm for her to be the first one up.  She set the table and waited for each sister and brother to wake up.

She worked diligently to make parfaits and cereal for them.  She even washed strawberries.

I just love how she's on her tip toes to make her food.

She's still so little.

That's Ryan's watch on her arm, that she wore for her alarm.

I love too that she put that black bow in her hair.  Such a proper waitress.

Later that day was THE DAY!

FIIIIIINALLY!
She learned to ride a bike!

First Lauren was helping her because we were doing a garage sale.  Then Ryan took over and I supported the effort by telling Brynnly she couldn't come back home until she could ride that bike!  Hahahaha!  I'm so helpful.  Once I saw significant improvement I came out to cheer and capture the miracle.  WooHoo!!  She's not super in love with it and kind of still scared, but we made major progress!  This summer we will be doing LOTS of bike riding!!  YAY!!!

GO BRYNNY GO!!!!

It's Great to be 8

We went to 8 is Great at church tonight.

This is your big year!

We already have the California Birthday trip planned and are looking forward to getting you a beautiful white dress all in celebration of the most important thing you can do...Follow Your Savior Jesus Christ and be baptized in His name to promise to do as He has taught all the days of your life.

It is a big decision, but it is also an easy one.

You already have a heart of gold.

You know Jesus and Heavenly Father are real and they love you.

You care deeply for others and love them.

Keep doing those things, repenting when you make a mistake, and continue on your journey.

Piece of Cake!

I love you Brynnly Girl, my baby love, my miracle gift, my reminder of God's love.

8 really will be GREAT!

Frozen the Musical

We went to see the Fozen Musical and it was soooo incredible!!
You weren't sure if you wanted to wear your Elsa dress, but I convinced you and you were SO happy you did!  EVERY girl there was in one!  And you were the PRETTIEST!!!  I told you you're almost out grown this dress, so you might as well wear it once more.

You are the best Miss!!!

Beautiful

You really enjoyed having the monarch butterflies migrate right through our neighborhood!

You carried this dead one around, pretending you had caught one.

You're so funny, and adorably wonderful!!!

PS I Love You

 You made all these cute little post-it notes and stuck them all over Dad's office. You are such a lovey girl and like to make everyone feel special!

Some times they are just random and FUNNY! You are the best!!

Fall Is In The Air

The weather is cooling down so we walked to the library after school. We saw so many butterflies!
